Super Cultivation System of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 17: Challenge the Martial Master
When Zhu Ye heard this, he immediately became unhappy and turned around and started yelling at his follower.

"It's all your fault! You insisted on coming with me. I told you not to, but you came anyway. You delayed me, otherwise I would be late! Humph! If I keep wasting time like this, when will my martial arts surpass Zhang Yong's?"

"Haha, what do you mean? Why does my martial arts have to be worse than yours?"

After hearing what Zhang Yong said, Zhu Ye immediately became interested.

"Of course! I, Young Master Zhu, will definitely be the world's most powerful warrior in the future. If I can't even beat you, then I might as well not practice martial arts anymore."

Although Zhang Yong has a gentle personality, he is still a child at heart, and he immediately started arguing with Zhu Ye.

"Hey, these two guys..."

Liu He shook his head and prepared to step forward to separate the two.

"Tsk, I thought they had some real skills, but it turns out they are just a bunch of insignificant kids who only know how to talk."

This harsh voice immediately interrupted the quarrel between Zhang Yong and Zhu Ye. The four children all looked at the person who was speaking, that is, Zhu Ye's follower.

"Master Ke Wu, why do you say that? Be careful or I will complain to my father."

Zhang Yong and Zhang Erni, brother and sister, also looked at the strange uncle angrily.

Master Ke Wu didn't care about their opinions. He folded his arms across his chest, raised his head, and looked at Liu He with his nose up.

"Are you the little guy from the Liu family?"

Zhang Yong was furious when he saw him like this, and Zhu Ye was also annoyed. He brought Master Ke Wu here himself. He originally just said that he was curious about how he had been training over the past ten days, so he came to take a look. But now he is so rude. It will be troublesome if Brother Liu gets angry about this.

The two were about to argue with Master Ke Wu, but Liu He stopped them.

He was not angry, but instead saluted Master Ke Wu with his fists clasped.

"Yes, I am Liu He. I wonder what advice this gentleman has for you?"

Although Liu He is only eight years old, he has developed early. Now he is over five feet tall and has a strong physique, just like a boy of fourteen or fifteen years old.

In addition, he was mentally mature, and his expression and tone were no different from those of an adult. So his politeness made Master Ke Wu a little surprised, as if he was facing an adult instead of a child.

But after a brief trance, he came to his senses.

"Hehe, you look so polite, how dare you do such a deceitful thing to the Zhu family?"

Seeing that this guy's words were becoming more and more unpleasant, Zhu Ye became anxious.

"Master Ke, how could you speak to my eldest brother like that!"

Master Ke Wu just sneered a few times and said, "Don't worry, young master. I definitely didn't mean to harm you today. I will expose this kid's true face and let you know how dangerous the world is."

After saying that, without even saying hello, he suddenly stretched out his arms and grabbed towards Liu He.

Although Liu He was a child, he was very mature in character. Judging from the other party's expression and behavior, as well as the way Zhu Ye addressed him, he had probably guessed the other party's intentions and was naturally prepared.

He kicked his legs and retreated three steps, leaving Master Ke Wu empty-handed.

"I should have never offended this gentleman before. But today, you suddenly came to visit me and attacked me. A man of eight feet tall treated a little boy like this. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at by the world?"

"Yes, who are you? How can you be so shameless!" "Master Ke, you are going too far. When I go home and report to my father, I will punish you severely!"

Zhu Ye and Zhang Yong stood on both sides of Liu He respectively, while Zhang Yu, who was frail and weak, just stood in front of the door of the wooden house, looking at Liu He anxiously.

While Liu He was speaking, he also instructed the system to check the attributes of Master Ke Wu and himself.

"Ding... Ke Heng's peak attributes: Command 57, Force 63, Intelligence 59, Politics 41."

"Ke Heng's current attributes: Command 55, Force 58, Intelligence 57, Politics 41."

"Host's current attributes: Command 21, Force 45, Intelligence 40, Politics 20."

Liu He understood: "Well, Ke Heng is old after all, and his energy has begun to decline. Although his martial arts skills are still far superior to mine, this is related to his weapon skills and combat experience. In terms of strength alone, I should not be much inferior."

After finding out the opponent's strength, Liu He felt more confident.

Master Ke Wu originally thought that there was no need to talk about kindness and justice when dealing with a little kid. He could just grab the kid and spank him until he begged for mercy. This would naturally make the kid lose face in front of Zhu Ye, and his own position would be saved.

But he didn't expect that the opponent failed to dodge his attack, and the boy spoke eloquently and calmly, not like an eight-year-old child at all. This really shocked him.

"Where on earth did this freak Liu He come from?"

Anyone, once their momentum weakens, will get half the result with twice the effort, and things will get worse and worse. This also applies to military generals fighting in battles.

Liu He was in the right and had a plan, so he naturally had the upper hand. However, Master Ke Wu used his strength to bully the weak and missed his first attack. Now he was in a daze, so he was at a disadvantage. With this gain and loss, the outcome was decided.

Seeing that the other party was in surprise, Liu He quickly stepped forward to finish him off.

"In terms of age, you are probably more than ten years older than my father, and you are probably old enough to be my grandfather. I didn't expect you to do such a despicable thing. Don't you have any shame?"

After hearing what Liu He said, and with Zhang Yong and Zhu Ye glaring at him fiercely, Master Ke Wu suddenly felt a little guilty.

"This... is not a big deal. It's just that I have been teaching martial arts to Master Zhu since he was young. I heard that he followed you to learn martial arts a few days ago. I thought, what can I teach an eight-year-old child? Wouldn't it be misleading? This is also a loyal thing for me. I am afraid that I will delay Master Zhu's future, so I am in a hurry..."

Master Ke Wu saluted with his fists clasped, but the moment he lowered his head, his eyes rolled around and he quickly thought of a countermeasure in his mind.

"It seems that I underestimated this boy! Do I really have to leave the Zhu Mansion? This Mr. Zhu is very generous and has spent a lot of effort to train his only son. I am really unwilling to leave like this!"

He just wanted to capture Liu He. If he succeeded, this kid would cry and beg for mercy with tears streaming down his face, and his image would be greatly damaged. Zhu Ye would naturally no longer admire this elder brother. But he failed. If he continued to capture and beat him now, even if he won, Zhu Ye would definitely hate him so much that he would not be able to stay in the Zhu Mansion.

Just as he was worrying about it, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a large rock next to him, and an idea immediately came to his mind.

He pretended to smile and said kindly, "Haha, since I have been entrusted by Mr. Zhu to teach Master Zhu, I must fulfill my duties. Today, I may have to test you, Master Liu. If you can prove that you have the ability to teach Master Zhu martial arts, then I will resign from my position as a teacher immediately. How do you think?"

When he said this, his words were so righteous that even Zhang Yong, Zhu Ye, and Zhang Yu almost believed that he was really loyal to his duty. But Liu He was not a real child, so how could he be fooled so easily?

He has already seen that Master Ke Wu has evil intentions. Whether it is to protect his own reputation or to prevent Zhu Ye's future from being ruined by him, he must compete with him today. In addition, Zhu Ye on the side keeps instigating him.

"Sir, this is also for Brother Zhu's good, how dare I disobey? I don't know how to prove it?"
